I started with a 5712
within weeks I headed for the 5980. Both are high and fine quality sport watches. My wrist and eyes find the bigger 5980 to wear and feel harmoniously on my wrist and I love the 5980 look and colors. I think you ought to try both before making your choice, they are very different in size!
Nautilus 5712 or 5980 upgrade?
I currently own a Patek Nautilus 5711/1A but i want to upgrade to a Nautilus 5712/1A, i like the more masculine look and the moonphase design. Now while i have been looking around for one i have come to the conclusion that i can pick up a 5980/1A for not ...
I had the same dilemma..
a couple months ago and ended up getting the 5712. Seeing it in person sealed the deal for me. The dial is sublime, as others have noted, and the thin case makes for the most comfortable watch I own. It was a tough choice because I love chronos, but I hav...
Both of you had 5711
Both of you had/have a 5711/1 and are considering upgrading replacing it for a 5712 or 5980? I just got a 5712/1 and was thinking of getting a 5711/1 also, but wondering how much I would wear it? I may get rid of a strap model or 2 because the bracelet ve...
5712 or 5980?
I don't know if you can go wrong with either. Liking the Nautilus series seems to be a love-hate thing and once you get over that hurdle, it's what you like. Back in the '80s when the 3700 was around, I didn't gravitate to the case design but then after a...
I feel much more confident with the 5712 than with the 5980...
Moreover, the 5980 is a bit too massive for a Nautilus. Well, it's my point of view ! Fr.Xavier This message has been edited by foversta on 2010-03-01 14:19:40
This is a very personal decision...
I think most people here will say go for the 5712. If you do like chronos, I would go for the 5980. However, the 5711 is still a fantastic watch. It is the original. Less is more.
I had a choice of 5712 and 5980...
...recently and I chose the 5712G. The 5980 was 'sportier' in bracelet but somehow, chronographs elude me; I like the look but have never found a use for it. Like someone said, you can't go wrong with either.
thanks
thanks for your responses, think i will go with the 5712..but maybe i should move to the annual chronograph in platinum..it never ends!
....listen to the heart
..the 5980 its very masculine,the 5712 it is more elegant for elegance if you are economically able you take a 3712,it is rarer and it will be revalued more Marco Italy
